I Am King Today

No you cannot have your way Because this is my party. I am the king of the day. Yes, girls can be king, Smarty. You can stay and eat and play. Birthday cake, scarf it hearty. Can you live? I must say nay. I am king and you are swarthy. Let her eat then take her away. I am king, and it’s my day!

Thank you. I am in competition with myself, and my muse and I are both amused to see what we have managed to do.

Your words are bubbly and full of spirit and bravado creating humorous imagery that tickles the imagination. Emile.

LOL Marie Antoinette certainly sounded like an egocentric king when she said, "Let them eat cake." Of course, it wasn't long before she lost her head. Thanks for the laugh, Caren. Enjoyed this one!! Hugs, Carolyn
